Muslim social media platform Labayk launches globally

A new social media platform based on Islamic morals and values called Labayk has launched globally. Labayk says it aims to be a platform that serves people’s needs through Islamic values and creating a respectful, truthful online environment. And rather than aggressive targeted advertising, the platform says it will donate to charitable causes. Labayk says everything on the platform will be kept halal – which means inappropriate or violent content will not be tolerated.

Its founder Tanweer Khan has spent his entire working career in financial markets in the UK and Singapore. He said: “This isn’t a Muslim only platform, it is open for everyone. However, Labayk is built on true Islamic values of peace, respect, kindness, truth and sincerity. And this is what I wanted the platform to be…However, the culture on most of these networks is driven by profits, allowing bots to shape people’s decisions and opinions. I wanted to create a platform where people can connect and effectively communicate with others, with similar values, in a safe and non-threatening environment.”

In recent years many Muslims have expressed concerns over having their religious and political views censored by Facebook and other social media platforms.
